Susan Chandler's husband had vanished without a
trace. . .along with their one-year-old daughter. Now,
seven years later, his car has been pulled from a river in
some backwater Mississippi town. Inside was the skeleton
of her husband and an empty baby seat. The local sheriff
is calling what happened an accident, but for Susan,
things just don't add up.

Major Jeb Bedford has returned to Mississippi with only
one thing on his mind--to get his wounded body back in
working order so he can rejoin his Delta Force team as
soon as possible. Susan Chandler's quiet desperation to
find her daughter, however, echoes his own struggle and
his own determination. And then somehow, protecting Susan
from those who don't want her to discover the truth about
her husband's death becomes more important to Jeb than
anything else.
